SKITTLE
LANE
It’s easy to make comparisons between Sydney and
Melbourne’s laneway coffee culture, with the latter
seemingly always coming out on top, but Skittle Lane, the
newly opened cafe at 40 King Street has all the hallmarks
of a quality Melbourne cafe, but overlaid with a Sydney
‘lightness’ that’s creating a stir.
40 King Street, Sydney
Open weekdays 7am - 4pm
skittlelane.com.au
Taking it’s name from the laneway
next door, Skittle Lane are serving
up some of the best coffee in the
CBD - their own coffee blend, which
is roasted offsite, and also a selection
of single origins via espresso, filter and
pour-over. The space is minimalist,
cool and contemporary, making most
of the incredible windows that were
originally on site, as well as clever
tiered seating and black rimmed
glazing. Coffee is the main event here,
but there’s also a rotating selection
of quick bites like toasties, pastries
from Penny Fours, biscuits and breads
from Sonoma.
